Sprint Burndown Chart

A time-based chart that tracks the remaining work in the current Sprint, plotting how much effort is left each day so the team can see progress toward the Sprint goal.

Key Points

  • X-axis shows Sprint days; Y-axis shows remaining work (e.g., hours, story points, or tasks).
  • Updated daily to reflect actual remaining effort, often after the Daily Scrum.
  • Helps forecast if the team is on track; lines above the ideal trend may indicate risk or scope increase.
  • Team-level visibility tool; it supports discussions and adaptation, not individual performance tracking.

Example

A Scrum team starts a 10-day Sprint with 80 story points. Each day they update the chart with the remaining points (e.g., 80, 74, 68, 65...). Mid-Sprint, the line flattens due to a blocked task, signaling a risk to finishing on time. The team swarms on the blocker and the burndown resumes its downward trend.
